Bakone advises on all aspects of M&A, joint ventures and distressed M&A, as trusted advisors we can operate at the heart of any process. Our success is driven by our commitment to providing sound and objective advice.

Sell Side M&A Advisory

Bakone specializes in generating successful exits for sellers of Africa focused businesses. We work on disposals initiated by private owners, as well as corporate divestments of non-core operations.
Our sell-side approach is focused on maximising value for our clients. We tenaciously market our client’s transactions to potential buyers in order to generate appropriate competition. Our attention is on the design and implementation of meticulous disposal processes to achieve the best outcomes for our clients.

Buy Side M&A Advisory

Bakone’s expertise and experience spans both in-bound and out-bound African buy side advisory assignments for public or private companies. Our deep networks enable us to assist clients in finding the perfect targets or partners on the continent.
Bakone works closely with clients throughout the buy side process. We identify, screen and evaluate potential targets. We initiate contact with target owners and get negotiations started. We coordinate target due diligence, advise on strategy, timing, structure, valuation, pricing, and assist in negotiating and closing transactions.
